Happy Half Birthday, Yodel boy! Time is flying! I was hoping to be able to update the blog over the past few months, but search dog puppy mode takes no prisoners! Puppies are demanding little tyrants no matter the breed,…

Sometimes the universe works in mysterious ways. When we brought Rally into our lives it wasn’t just because we wanted another dog, but because I want to be a search dog handler… and you can’t be a dog handler…

We traveled full time for two years, and recently settled down in Bozeman, Montana to enjoy the mountain life with our dogs Hilde and Yodel.
